Well..I followed these nomes all the way from the store to the quarry and worried about their safety all the time. I have enjoyed their company, humour and antics. Now it falls to me to say that I enjoyed TRUCKERS just that little bit more. But....if I only give DIGGERS *** I will feel as if I am letting Masklin and all the other little guys down.......so............. ( )

This is my least favorite of the three Bromeliad books. It is still funny, but didn't make me laugh out loud so much. ( )

Book 2 of 3 in a Pratchett young adult/children's series- the 'nomes' world is still in upheaval and yet this book felt much slower than the first, likely because it's a midway book. Typical Pratchett satirical humor, acceptable for all agees - warning - not at all related to Discworld if that's what you are lookingfor. ( )

After the nomes make their escape from the store, they crash the truck in an abandoned quarry and make their home there. But the quarry isn't abandoned for long, and when the humans start making plans to reopen it, the nomes once more have to find somewhere else to live.

This one felt slower than the first, but I still enjoyed it. ( )
